Overview
About this bike
So you like 29ers and technical trails? So does Salsa's Horsethief! Devour challenging terrain on its 120mm-travel aluminum frame with active single-pivot rear suspension. Combine that with a longer top tube so you can run the go-fast combo of a short stem and wide bars, and you have a demon descender. And, depending on the terrain and your riding style, Fox supplies a 120mm-travel fork that's convertible to 140mm travel! The parts pick is skewed toward the aggressive side, with Stan's Flow wheels, a low-geared 2x10 SRAM X9 drivetrain, and wide Continental tires. There's also a short Salsa stem and 710mm-wide Salsa bars. Good work on this one, Salsa!
